Never had any probs with either the B4 or the 350 (2B1) with start up straight after a shutdown but for memory there is no mention of cranking the engine prior to start as with say a B206 to reduce temp's, but if she gets hot Abort Start (switch off), Boost Pump off, GEN off and crank.
The EC120 is a little different but still reasonable just keep an eye on the procedings....modulate.
As with all of em stay focused.
does anyone know if they (the frenchies) intend uping the 120.....wider chord blades and squuzing a little more power out of the donk?
It would be well worth it a great little helicopter.
